About Me

I love art! and love to sew! There is not a day that goes by where I am not creating something. Most of my work is completely random depending on my moods. I like to use a variety of upholstery, leather and other scrap materials to create one of a kind handbags. My love for nature and gardening inspires me to create unique handbags with flower details and bright colors and many of my pieces include insects and birds.

Time to celebrate! I am so happy this bag is done. It was a really big job, bigger than I really expected. Now I am free! That is it for shows, donations, special orders, etc. right now. I can focus on some new projects that are fun this week.

In this months issue of Quilting Arts magazine, I was inspired by the pet portraits that were featured by artist Karin Winter. This months challenge for my quilting group is to make a 12 x 12 block using any technique I'd like, so I decided I would try this technique out, but also because I have always been curious about doing more fabric collage. Karin talks about how she started making ATC's in fabric and it was more difficult to focus on details in such a small space so she moved on to making 8.5x10" portraits. I just think that it would be fun to work on a miniature scale 2.5 x 3.5", so I might try it out smaller too, just to see what it is like. I will also be adding some more cases to my shop and working on some other pieces I have had lined up. They have been waiting patiently:)
